This meadowland is bordered with mature trees, some being Oak and Ash. It also has some ancient divisions within the meadow which boast some towering Ash, beautiful for shade on a hot summers day.

There are also blackthorn, willow and beech trees to name a few.

During our work in the woodland we have been lucky enough to see Red Deer grazing outside our tents in the early morning. There are also a few badger dens, some old and some active.

Spring and summer sees numerous butterflies and insects.

The birdlife is diverse, being so close to Moel Bentyrch hill the meadow often has birds of prey frequenting it. We have seen buzzards and we think peregrine falcons must be nesting nearby.

The woodland and fields are full of life the whole year round.

Composed of three main areas, Cae Ffynnon has an open meadowland to the south; this borders the track climbing up to the parking area. The north east meadow is a private meadowland nestled between Moel Bentyrch Hill and a living (fenced) border. It has some very mature ash in the upper centre, the western meadow is where you can find the ancient well, it stretches down to the main parking area.

Onsite is a gorgeous old barn in need of some love.

The access to Cae Ffynnon is via the right of way up the newly laid track leading up from the bottom car parking area. At the top of the slope there is a flat area suitable for a vehicle.

From the vehicle area keeping the boundary fenceline on your right there is an opening ahead which leads into the north, east and western fields of Cae Ffynnon. The boundaries are marked in aqua marine.

A second gateway to the left of the barn opens directly into the small western field.

There are no public footpaths on Cae Ffynnon, but lots of tracks where animals have wandered over the years.

Behind Cae Ffynnon is Moel Bentyrch hill, and we highly recommend walking to to the top to take in the beautiful rolling countryside views. Also up here have a look for the ancient settlement, perhaps the well on Cae Ffynnon is where they drew their water from?
